  My question is not there in the FAQ
Asked questions on this answer:
  1. Your program will save my icon layout, but when I restart PC, there is nothing in the list of saved layouts. Also, when I reboot PC, I have to re-enter the language (it defaults to German and I have to change it to English each time I open your app).

    Here are my settings in your app:
    Options, Save Options: the only two items checked are "Virtual Desktop" and "Keep last 4".

    Options,Auto Save: The only items checked are "Enable", "Once per day" and "Keep last 4"

    OPTIONS: I have the following checked:"Save by Windows Shutdown", "Restart from a selected layout", and "always start minimized"

    Under the "DESKTOPOK" drop down menu the only item checked is "Minimize to tray if close"
  2. I forgot, your program runs in memory and does not Install as a regular Win 10 pgm
    When I deleted what I thought was a shortcut I managed to uninstall 4.19.
    I was then able to install 6.06 with no problem.
    Thanks for your help
  3. Ok I downloaded a different file DesktopOK_Installer_x64 which has the installer.
    I installed it over 4.19 and when I run the program Its still 4.19.
    I uninstalled the program with Revo Uninstaller pro and I looks like it has gone but I have a shortcut that points to 4.19 that stills runs 4.19.
    How can I uninstall this 4.19 and update to 6.06?


    Is the download from: https://www.softwareok.com/?Download=DesktopOK https://www.softwareok.eu/?Download=DesktopOK or https://www.softwareok.de/?Download=DesktopOK Regards Nenad
